389: A man is innocent but is guilty of possessing a treasure. He teaches and educates people!
Night.
After Fang Ran finished eating, he brought Xu Yue to her room.
He said with a solemn expression, "Teacher Xu Yue, there's something I must make clear to you."
"Actually, I didn't want to say it."
Hearing Fang Ran's words, Xu Yue's heart sank.
She had never seen Fang Ran so serious. Had she done something wrong?
Just as Fang Ran was about to speak, a call suddenly came in.
He looked at his phone and was startled, "It's the Beast Taming Association. I'll go out for a bit."
Xu Yue nodded.
A moment later.
Fang Ran arrived at the spacious balcony.
The night was already deep, and only vehicles could be seen flowing endlessly on the road.
"Fang Ran, have you arrived in Yu City?"
"Yes, President Bai." Fang Ran nodded.
"President Bai, they are all going to be promoted to Emperor-level. Aren't you going?"
"Haha, someone has to oversee the overall situation, don't they?" President Bai spoke casually, not caring.
Compared to him, surpassing the Emperor-level was more important!
Fang Ran felt a renewed respect for him.
"Do you know why I made you the inspector of Yu City?" President Bai asked.
"Why?"
Fang Ran was very curious about this.
Even with his sufficient talent, according to the strict standards of the Beast Taming Association, he would at least have to wait until he reached the King Late Stage!
"You probably don't know yet, the Seal Stone is not just one piece. The Alien Race also possesses a portion of it."
"But they don't have the key."
Fang Ran was stunned.
No key?
"Even if there's a key that can open the boundary of heaven and earth, isn't that a good thing?"
Fang Ran looked surprised.
Isn't it a good thing for everyone to improve their strength together?
At least their Dragon Country wouldn't suffer, and his Beast Tamer naturally wouldn't suffer either.
The surroundings suddenly fell silent. Just as Fang Ran thought President Bai would get angry, he spoke, "The locked prison door has a crack, and water from the outside world flows into this world through this crack."
"But the space in the prison is always limited, and the water flows in slowly."
Fang Ran leaned on the railing, watching the flowing vehicles and pondering.
Their world was the locked prison.
The Seal Stone was the lock that held them.
As long as the prison wasn't opened, no one could leave this place.
"What if we just open the door directly?"
Fang Ran asked curiously.
"The seawater will fill this world, but along with it will come the creatures from the sea."
"Creatures from the sea?!"
Fang Ran was startled.
He seemed to have thought of something bad.
"Various countries have already captured creatures from outside the domain," President Bai suddenly added.
This astonishing news made Fang Ran's mind tremble.
This meant that the cage speculation in the USB drive was correct!
Were they really trapped in a cage?!
"We have already conducted initial inquiries." President Bai paused, then said, "The realm before King-level is called the Chrysalis Stage, and the King-level is called the Feathering Stage."
"And above the Feathering Stage, there are also King Beast-level, Sky Beast-level, and Divine Beast-level!"
"Those Divine Beasts possess the ability to reach heaven and earth."
Hearing President Bai's words, Fang Ran was speechless for a long time.
Chrysalis, Feathering, King Beast, Sky Beast, and Divine Beast?
Feathering-level represented the King-level, which was naturally the realm Fang Ran was in.
"What level is the Emperor-level?"
"The Emperor-level represents the King Beast-level."
This was also within Fang Ran's expectations.
After all, the gap between Monarch and Emperor was too great!
The peak rank in this world could only reach the peak of Feathering, and only a few people could reach the King Beast-level using special means!
"What else have you found out?"
Fang Ran instinctively felt there was more to it; otherwise, President Bai wouldn't have sought him out for no reason.
As for how to gently extract information, that was not something Fang Ran needed to concern himself with.
"Some creatures have already made initial contact with the Alien Race, and they also possess Seal Stones. If the foreign creatures open the door..." President Bai said solemnly.
If they were allowed to come over, no one knew what would happen!
Perhaps a few would be friendly, but most would not. After all, those ten-thousand-year-old Evolution Fruit Trees would also evolve.
An innocent man is guilty because of his treasure. Wouldn't it be a joke for these weak creatures to occupy a multitude of Evolution Fruit Trees?
"I want you and a few other strong Beast Tamer to go to the Celestial God Clan's stronghold. No matter what method you use, try to find out the location of the Seal Stone!"
"However, before that, there will be another screening. Whether you can protect your jurisdiction will be your test."
It seemed that Fang Ran had handled it very well.
As soon as he returned, Yu City withdrew its request for assistance.
More than ten minutes later.
"Was that President Bai? He wants you to go to the Celestial God Clan's base?" Xu Yue seemed to have overheard something.
Fang Ran didn't intend to hide it and nodded immediately.
Xu Yue sighed, "You must be careful when you go. My younger brother went to complete a mission and then disappeared."
Fang Ran was momentarily stunned, looking at Xu Yue's sad expression, and suddenly hesitated whether to reveal it.
A moment later, he stepped forward and pulled Xu Yue into his embrace, saying, "You can think of me as your younger brother."
These words were too cheesy.
Fang Ran regretted saying them as soon as they left his mouth.
But the delicate body in his arms trembled and burrowed into his embrace. A moment later, it even dampened the front of Fang Ran's clothes.
"What's wrong, Xu Yue?"
Fang Ran quickly asked.
This was the first time this teacher had shown a vulnerable side in front of him.
"It's nothing." She wiped away her tears, her delicate face streaked with tears, and said, "I just remembered the past. You've saved me many times. If something happened to you too..."
Deep down, Xu Yue could no longer bear a second blow.
"Teacher Xu Yue, actually... your younger brother is already dead."
"I killed him."
Fang Ran spoke softly, feeling the delicate body in his arms stiffen.
After a long while, Xu Yue looked weary and said, "What happened?"
Fang Ran recounted everything he had experienced to Xu Yue.
This included that he had joined the Yu Shen Society, but he did not say that he had intended to harm Xu Yue.
After saying all this, Fang Ran instinctively wanted to pull away.
After all, who wouldn't hate someone who killed their own family?
However, Xu Yue hugged him tightly and whispered, "Don't go. You're the only younger brother I have left."
The next day, Fang Ran took her and buried him in the mountains.
To alleviate Xu Yue's mental stress, Fang Ran spent these days by her side, playing the role of a younger brother.
And Xu Yue's spirits improved day by day, as if she truly regarded Fang Ran as her own younger brother and was educating him.
"Hmm? The Beast Taming Association has already sent news. Old Shen seems to be returning!"
Fang Ran received the message.
Xu Yue's face lit up with joy. She leaned onto Fang Ran and looked at his phone, saying, "Really?"
"It's true. Old Shen has been promoted to Emperor-level and will soon return to Yu City to take over my position," Fang Ran smiled.
Upon hearing this news, Xu Yue immediately hugged Fang Ran excitedly and moved twice.
Then she felt something poke her body and instantly froze.
